Book Description
This is the complete practical introduction to virtual reality and multimedia for those wishing to build systems. It covers the foundations and engineering needed to design and construct projects incorporating video, audio and textural elements and including the use of the latest hardware, to create an artificial world for education, information or entertainment. Production and authoring platforms are described, computer animation and hypertext are covered, but those looking for pages of software listings and computerspeak will be disappointed. This book is about the nuts and bolts: sound and video cards, head mounted displays, CrystalEyes glasses, other 3D glasses for entertainment, audio and video production, and realistic auditory and visual stimulation including stereoscopy. The creation of Cyberspace, and strategies to achieve a complete Cyberatmosphere are presented. Three-dimensional sound generation and video techniques that have never previously been published are revealed. This is the handbook for anyone working in the industry, or hoping to enter it. It also provides a guide for those hoping to 'cross-fertilise' the industry, coming from audio, video, computing or engineering backgrounds. A complete technical guide to MM and VR Includes a Hypertext edition of the book with added audio and graphics on CD Hardware, software, video and never before published 3D audio techniques covered

Book Description
This book is primarily a summary of research done over 10 years in multimedia and virtual reality, which fits within a wider interest of exploiting psychological theory to improve the process of designing interactive systems. The subject matter lies firmly within the field of HCI, with some cross-referencing to software engineering. Extending Sutcliffe's views on the design process to more complex interfaces that have evolved in recent years, this book: *introduces the background to multisensory user interfaces and surveys the design issues and previous HCI research in these areas; *explains the basic psychology for design of multisensory user interfaces, including the Interactive Cognitive Subsystems cognitive model; *describes elaborations of Norman's models of action for multimedia and VR, relates these models to the ICS cognitive model, and explains how the models can be applied to predict the design features necessary for successful interaction; *provides a design process from requirements, user and domain analysis, to design of representation in media or virtual worlds and facilities for user interaction therein; *covers usability evaluation for multisensory interfaces by extending existing well-known HCI approaches of heuristic evaluation and observational usability testing; and *presents two special application areas for multisensory interfaces: educational applications and virtual prototyping for design refinement.

Book Description
The intersection of two disciplines and technologies which have become mature academic research topics in the 1990s was destined to be a dynamic area for collaboration and publication. However, until now no significant book-length treatment of the meeting of GIS and Virtual Reality has been available. This volume puts that situation to rights by bringing these together to cement some common understanding and principles in a potentially highly promising area for technological collaboration and cross-fertilisation. The result is a volume which ranges in subject matter from studies of a Virtual GIS Room to Spatial Agents, and from an Environmental Multimedia System to Computer-Assisted 3D Geographic Education. All the contributors are well-known international scientists, principally from the computational side of GIS. It will be a valuable resource for any GIS researcher or professional looking to understand the leading edge of this fertile field.

Book Description
Papers from an October 2001 conference explore technologies and applications of enhanced environments, with a focus on the specific areas of virtual heritage, immersive art and creative technology, and virtual design in industry, architecture, and medicine. Topics include visualizing archaeological reconstruction, cemetery preservation and laser scanning, interactive TV, and a stereo vision-based augmented reality system with marker and natural feature tracking. Other topics include modeling electronic arts and ubiquitous computing in a virtual environment, design considerations for an oxygen flute, character- driven story generation in interactive storytelling, and the role of place in cyberspace. This work lacks a subject index. c. Book News Inc.

Book Description
Augmented and virtual reality (AR and VR) offer exciting opportunities for human computer interaction (HCI), the enhancement of places, and new business cases. Though VR is most popular for video games, especially among younger generations, AR and VR can also be used in applications that include military, medical, navigational, tourism, marketing, and maintenance uses. Research in these technologies along with 3D user interfaces has gained momentum in recent years and has solidified it as a staple technology for the foreseeable future. Multimedia and Sensory Input for Augmented, Mixed, and Virtual Reality includes a collection of business case studies covering a variety of topics related to AR, VR, and mixed reality (MR) including their use in possible applications. This book also touches on the diverse uses of AR and VR in many industries and discusses their importance, challenges, and opportunities. While discussing the use these technologies in sectors such as education, healthcare, and computer science, this book is ideal for computer scientists, engineers, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students who are interested in the latest research on augmented, mixed, and virtual reality.

Book Description
This book supports readers in the development of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) pilot training simulator by exploiting open-source or free gaming software and emphasizing the importance of using established and widely-available game design techniques to provide engaging scenarios for ROV training developers and trainees. There is no such book to guide the users to create an open-source virtual simulator for pilot training in the marine and offshore industry. This book can be used as a reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students, engineers, researchers, and lecturers in VR simulation using UnityTM as the leading software. Some of the key features of the book include: • Step-by-step procedures in development ROV pilot training simulator • Use of open-source software UnityTM that is freely available to all readers • The codes used in the book are self-sufficient as there are no codes hidden from readers
